Wine Tasting: The Heavyweights (Reds)

So you really only drink reds-- the heavier, thicker, and chewier the better. No wussy Pinot for you! Very well. For this meetup, we'll take you to the ends of the earth to find the deepest, darkest, bloodiest reds, the ones that make sophisticated wine tasters shudder with horror at the big jammy deliciousness. These are the brazen buxom redheads striding into the ballroom in a black dress; nothing subtle about them. Still, secretly everyone wants some.

As usual, we'll start off with a quick discussion about smelling, tasting, pairing, buying and storing wine. Gourmet small bites will be served to pair, but you may want to plan on dinner after. Please pay via Paypal when you RSVP. (If you would like to pay by cash or check, send an email to [masked].) If you don't eat/like any particular food, PLEASE let us know in advance-- otherwise we'll assume you eat everything!

Thank you David for everything it took to put that on! That was really a wonderful tasting. Also was nice to experience a restaurant I'm sure I never would have gone to on my own. Great food with great wines, what more could one ask for!

We're about:

We are interested in having a good time with existing friends and also meeting new people. As is quite self-explanatory in the name, we are a very casual after-work/weekend group which obviously involves a LITTLE BIT of drinking. You do not have to speak Japanese nor drink to join us but show us the will to learn.
